Ōtara Work Is Business Premises Maintenance
Nearly all of our Ōtara jobs are commercial rather than residential, business premises, and the steady maintenance work that keeps them running.
Real examples: test and tag rounds, fault finding and repairing power points, repairing a hot plate, pole light repair, car park signage and fans, changing fans around, fault finding loose plugs, Christmas lighting, and flickering light repairs.
This is unglamorous work and it’s exactly what a business needs, someone who turns up, finds the fault, fixes it, and keeps the compliance paperwork straight. We’re ten minutes away at 179c Harris Road, East Tamaki.
